Yeah, that was actually unintentional...I didn't realize what was going on in that picture until I had already made the video. When I first saw the pic I just thought it was a pic of Kermit looking sad, lol.

Thank you so much...this brought tears to my eyes. While others have named actors, scientists, leaders, etc as their heroes....I have alway held my loyalty to Jim Henson. He was brilliant and I envy this man's talent and creativity...as well as passion for his craft. Beautiful video!

[RzepkoidProductions]

Thank you. :)

Yes, Jim is my hero as well...he was just an all around fantastic, creative human being that is sorely missed.

Thanks to all of you for the nice comments...:)

This tribute is really beautiful.

Thank you for showing that once again, there are people out there who more then missing the entertainment, can appreciate the genius, generosity, and vision of a truly blessed person. He is still missed sorely by many.. i can feel it in my chest every time i lose myself in one of these tributes. I just tell myself it's jim reminding me not to give up on my own dreams in my life (i'm a pupetter/filmmaker as well). Thanks again for the support

[RzepkoidProductions]

Thanks for the comment. :)

Jim was definitely a very unique and gifted individual who will never be forgotten. I appreciate those people who are trying to keep puppeteering alive in the age of technology and CGI, so I wish you the best of luck in your filmmaking. :)

I remember in High School a few years back and one of our Homecoming days was called "Hero Day" where people would dress up as hero's of all kinds

I could only think of one guy, it was Jim Henson, and as such I didn't wear a costume but printed out a big photo of him and Kermit and put down on the side "Heroes aren't only people who DO great things but those who inspire others to do the same"

Rest in Peace Jim, bet you're entertaining folk in Heaven as much as you did here

I do believe any one of us touched by Jim's work carries a bit of his wonderful vision inside of each of us. It is only up to us to decide whether or not we wish to act on said vision, though.

"My ambition was to be one of the people who made a difference in the world. My hope still is to make the world a little better for my having been here."~Jim

You done good, Jim, at least in my eyes. God bless you, for you're missed dearly!

I got in love with this song when I was, I think 5 or 6. And 'til now, this made me cry, always makes me cry. I have to admit Kermit's version was indeed a legend. And Sarah McLachlan's flawless. R.I.P Mr. Henson.

I often wonder what wonders he would have given the world if he was still with us.

Wonderful video...thanks. If I had the time an the proper sources...I'd write a screen play based off of his life. I'd call it "The Rainbow Connection"...unfortunately I don't:(

R.I.P. Jim, one of the greatest men in history. Thanks for the vid. it was brilliant

Where is that bench with the sculpture of Jim and Kermit that's shown right before the end?

I loved the profile shot of Mr. Henson and Bert.
